    This film made me shed a tear. I was the biggest fan of the Piss Drunx 18 years ago. I would watch Baker2G then go skate every single day in the streets of LA trying to be just like him. Best moments of my life that I can ever remember. I recently decided to start skating again at age 32 and seeing Greco doing it in his 40s really gives me more of a drive to go ahead and do it. God Bless you Jim Greco. You are the man, a legend, and a genius. Beautiful work. Straight up masterpiece. PD for life ✊

      Dude, I picked up a skateboard at 44. Trust me - I still have fun. Instead of feeling nearly dead , I feel fucking alive. Taking a breath in between work, family, and piles of shit that fill your adult life everyday.

      Angel,,Dude not to sounf corny af but im so proud of you stranger... You did what i did and you did it 5 years before me..
      I starter skating again when my 5 year old daughter was at her friends house and she had a bigger brothe rwho was like 8 or 9 years old and i saved his board and skated it back to him and he started smack talking me and my daughter said "my dad can kickflip"
      i was like "shut up honey ;D)" SO i tried it (in the hard grass like a btch) and LANDED IT.. Super sketch but whatevs, it was almost 20 years..
      I stopped in 1994 when i was like 18 or 19... Well that was about 7 years ago & now i skate almost every other day.
      *I over shared hoping you would give me your similar Angel.
      **At my age im more curb dancing & Manny Curb stuff. No stairs at all. that summer i 1st returned i went to my local skatepark and sessioned with these two kids for 2 hours trying to land simple tre flip and when i finally got it the 1st turn afte rthe kid in front of me did it was a hellova moment for me. But i regret that i didn't perfect em and they arent part of my skating at all. But that moment fealt great..
      *My favorite part has to be watching older vids to get psyched to for pre session & buying older gear from ebay like eS Ronnie Creager or Old 2005 era Kostons and old powell decks..
      **Angel,,Those older Powell decks from the late 1980's up till 1996'ish were made with special wood. i learne3d this when i got ahold of a Chris Senn deck anfd a Ray Underhill deck and it was so noticable how strong the board was. How much control i had. That waw the moment i went from Popsicle to football shaped..... Damn,,i just got psyched with these mems... hope i hear from ya homie.

      @@gokermitsewerside358 I think for Greco, skateboarding is just one of the multiple ways he lives his life without thinking about the future / consequences. I'm thinking for example about his heroin addiction. His character is a spectacle. Sho knows what will happen after his career? Maybe ride a home made boat in the sea and almost die like Heat Kirchart? I admire him but I am not going to care more than he does. (btw I don't know him personnally and I might very well be completely wrong)

      Exactly. Skateboarding is a form of art, expressing yourself. You don't need a million tricks to leave someone in awe. Just those shots of him skating in the apartment was far more visually pleasing than someone getting down on El Toro.

    It’s not genius, it’s a copy of the mood of what is genius-in Italo american cinema. Greco escapes the present by transformation: in decor, props clothing (something he always did). Architecture becomes a source of fun and visual storyteller. I find it a brave film and hope Greco keeps doing these, building himself a new universe inside the broad imagery of skateboarding-finding his own artistic language.

      Unlike these two, Heath is still actually really good. Dude is around 40 and still skates like he's 28. Tom and Greco on the other hand....sorry but it's boring to watch nowadays. Especially Tom Penny. Dude was sick af in the 90s but now all we ever see him do is a few basic tricks just fooling around...as if he doesn't really skate anymore but steps back on the board every now and then. Maybe he skates all the time still, I don't know but it doesn't look like it to me. His skating reminds me of myself when I was working 7 days a week for almost a year and then got back on the board months later.
